ForwardSupport Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 Hi there, we bought an Alvis Shielder in the UK last month and now I am trying to find the drivers manual. We do have the official TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION already. Anyone out there who can help me out here with a digital copy? forwardsupport@adkoolen.com The Netherlands.

daleheywoodtanks Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 Hello fellow shielder owner. I have a drivers manual on its way to me, should take a week or so. when it arrives i will let you know and email a copy. In exchange will you then send me a copy of the technical description as i do not have one ? Regards Dale 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daleheywoodtanks Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 We recently offered our services to Lancashire fire service to help with the fires on winter hill nearby us, they were quick to accept our offer ! the vehicle turned out to be ideal, accessing areas that were otherwise out of reach. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForwardSupport Posted August 11, 2018 Author Share Posted August 11, 2018 Hi Dale, That is fantastic, I will give you the extended tech manual now. (see attached) BTW we bought a "brandnew" shielder and are making it remotely operated, especially for fire fighting in tunnels etc. Min DoD Shielder unlocked.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tarland Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 Dale, Interesting to see the Shielder helping out Lancs Fire Service. Theres a couple of IBC's on the back but what else? Pump and manifold to feed the hoses? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daleheywoodtanks Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 Many thanks 'FS' for the manual, that will be a big help, especially for the fitting of radios. Hi Tarland. Two small pumps on front sponsons operated by fire crew, moving or stationary. One larger pump on rear, again operated by fire crew. Two IBC's on board, sometimes four. All systems on the Shielder seemed to stand the heat pretty well. The tracks appear to have not been damaged. Especially after working hard every day for eight days ! I'll find some more photos.

daleheywoodtanks Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 Tarland, I hope these photos go some way to answering your questions ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VJM777 Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 Would you be able to share a three-view drawing of the Shielder vehicle from the Technical Manual (and dimensional information)? I am interested in comparing the various CVR(T) derivatives, and am getting a bit confused between Stormer and Stormer flat bed, as the wheel stations appear to be spaced differently, and overall dimensions are also not the same... Many thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
